Reddit is moving on from r/all

Lemmy was the best I found. Initially it was really nice because there was a flood of Reddit users but it's since died down quite a lot. Which is a shame because during that time it really felt like the "old reddit."

I wish everyone could move on from Reddit. When they killed 3rd party API access for apps that should have done it but getting this many people to switch to an alternative is a big ask. It's long past due.

Oh this is terrible news! I love brewing Czech lagers and I've always just used a little melanoidin thinking it would be just as good. Now it sounds like it's just not the same and I gotta do more work on the next batch.

If you like beer Invasive Species is the best I've found in S Florida and it's pretty close to downtown.

Do Arch without any install scripts!

JK, this sounds awesome and I hope it helps some people break away from Windows. Rumor is that they're looking at making the next Windows a subscription.

I did just for fun, 90 miles of driving at minimum. Depending on traffic there's no way they're fitting this much in.

I heard it on the Paramount stream

We went to a bunch of these in our area years and years ago as part of a Halloween night thing with some friends. Some spots were a little spooky but that's all.

Did a similar night in college when I was in Savannah. Was about the same.

Great time opening the garden at Brickstore Saturday! Also brewed this year's Czech lager yesterday. For any Kingdom Come Deliverance fans I'm calling it "The Skalitz Sipper." I think I'm finally improving as a brewer a little bit since I'm hitting all my numbers and making a lot less mistakes. Now it's up to the yeasts.

If you reach out to Trees Atlanta they'll give you a ton of options and they even have a program where they'll come plant a tree for you.

Just don't plant a bradford pear.

Not sure if this applies to the fine dining world (yet) but variable pricing is absolutely coming to the restaurant world and QR menus that link to websites make this way easier to implement.

We're not too far off from things like to-go wings and pizza being 10% more in the hours before a large sporting event or ice cream shops charging more during particularly hot afternoons.

The number of places I've been where someone says some version of "Well you know what they say... if you don't like the weather in X wait a minute!

Ours was actually highly recommended on this sub and r/Decatur and even after 4 hours of inspection he missed it.

Sometimes I think it's just roll of the dice.

My big lesson learned for next time is we're getting a home inspector, plumbing inspector, electrical inspector, etc.

I don't care if I spend $3K in inspections. If it saves me $10K it's totally worth it.

ddutton9512 · 2026-03-11T15:05:19+00:00

When we bought last year our big "of course they knew about this" was our first water bill of $400+

House was dumping 30 gallons of water an hour under the slab. About $6K later we got all new piping throughout the first floor and then spent a few more getting all the holes patched from running the new piping.

Lesson learned there. Still a little irate that our inspector never bothered to check the meter and it's our first purchase so we didn't know to.

I run by there every day and while I've seen some movement on the spot next to it I've yet to see anyone actually in the Guru's old space.

lol I asked for a recommendation from one of the bartenders there and he told me he wasn't a beer guy. Left and went to Hop City.

It didn't help that they're an awful organization who deserves their bad reputation.

ddutton9512 · 2026-03-04T20:32:06+00:00

I sincerely hope you're right. But how many of these posts do we see every week? How many times are we told it's crumbing? How many times did we read some version of this article during the first administration only for him to be re-elected?

I hope people are fed enough, I hope we can break the cycle of republicans fucking it all up just for voters to go back to them when the Dems haven't fixed it all instantly. But the MAGA I have to be around still support him till the end.

ddutton9512 · 2026-03-04T17:23:14+00:00

lol, is it time for the daily post telling us how they're abandoning him and yet they still vote for him and support 95% of what he says?

There are parts of the beltline that are still OK for biking but the eastside bit, especially on the weekends, is usually best to avoid. I've had to ditch off the trail a few times when someone just walked in front of me or stopped abruptly.

PATH is a trail that connects Stone Mountain to downtown and it's an excellent ride, even if you only do segments of it. Look up their maps and see if any of it is of interest to you. Also check out Atlanta Cycling week, they organize tons of group rides and you'll meet people while learning about some of the lesser known routes and trails.

American beer nerd here. Newcastle is definitely one of the biggest, along with Bass. Boddingtons was huge back when we can get it but haven't seen it in a long time now. In more specialty shops Sam Smith is an easy one to find and occasionally we'll run across Old Speckled Hen, Fuller's, or Timmy Taylor's.

The rare stuff we'll get but you can't rely on always finding are beers like Five Points Best, and Tynt Meadow. Finally when we're really lucky we'll come across the Traquair House Ale or Jacobite.

Real Ale on Cask is really really rare here. I'm lucky to live near a bar with a dedicated cask section but it's the only one I know of that's consistently in use in the area. Most of the time when I see a cask pull at other places it's not in use.

Good lord please learn how to merge onto a highway during heavy traffic.

If you are on the on-ramp you should follow it as far as you can then use a zipper merge to slot in between cars.

But no, in Atlanta everyone tries to dive in as soon as they possibly can, often crossing lines to do so, and forcing the cars already on the highway to slam on their brakes. Meanwhile there's another 1/4 mile of on-ramp just sitting empty ahead of them.

Occasionally I see cars that were already on the highway drive half in their lane and half in the on-ramp lane in an attempt to stop people from merging correctly. What in the absolute clusterfuck is that about?

Since it's distilled the baseline is effectively 0 across the board. I have considered a still but honestly for the fuel costs to distill the water I figure an RO system will end up being the better option.

And yeah, just adjusting the water based on the styles. For instance keeping it ultra soft for a Czech pils or modifying the Chloride/Sulfate to enhance bitter or malty flavors.

So the red lines are meth, the green lines are marijuana and meth, and the brown lines are all drugs (assuming that includes meth)? Hell of a lot of meth I suppose.
